Catfish21:

Thanks, but the one you refer to was teh "Harrison" type expansion tank as used on the FIA/USSRC cars. The one I'm refering to, as used on the street cars, was black and, as viewed from the top, retangular in shape. The top was slightly curved.

If I can locate a picture I will post it.

That be the one!

PS: Interesting engine; it looks like a Boss/Cleveland motor.

Folks:

Here is an expansion tank for a 1960 THunderbird. Is this what they used? It looks close... but not the same.
